The Grand Theft Auto (GTA) fan community is experiencing significant discontent following the controversy generated by a Twitter account known as Zap Actu GTA6, which posted fake videos of the highly anticipated GTA 6, generated by artificial intelligence. Despite warnings that the content was fake, the clips reached an impressive 8 million views in just one day. This phenomenon was due to the attraction that the title evokes among Rockstar followers, who were captivated by the supposed gameplay reveal of the game.

The account owner, who has faced fierce criticism, has rebranded as Actuzz MAG and has apologized for generating false expectations. “I’m sorry if I made people believe something that wasn’t true; I admit I didn’t think things through properly.” he commented in response to disappointed followers. However, despite his acknowledgment of the mistake, the account continues to share speculative content, such as the idea of a possible DLC for Christmas 2026 in a snow-covered Vice City.
The story has particularly resonated with the fan community, who feel deceived, leading to a backlash against the account amid general anger. This situation has highlighted the delicate balance between fiction and reality in a community eager for news about GTA 6.
Dan Houser, co-founder of Rockstar, has pointed out that the success of GTA lies in its “sense of freedom” and its innovative blend of game genres, something that the series has managed to capitalize on over the years. Amid this uproar, fans are eagerly awaiting an official communication from Rockstar to clarify the rumors about the future of the saga.
